Making My Mark

The implications of my actions,
Has an impact and reactions,
Gaining the traction I need,
I feed into the actual issue,
To find the roots' shoots,
Wishing you knew how I see you,
A true reflection of grace,
Creating within this space,
As you face your struggles,
The chase tugging at nerves,
As you swerve into chaos,
An auspicious place to be,
You aught to be proud,
Endowed where you are,
Carving a name from nothing,
It's something to be marveled,
Marvelous and magnificent,
It's an imminent threat,
To those who wont let go,
The shadow tricks you,
At first you don't know,
I used them to help me grow,
Flowing within the unknown,
Shown only what I can hold,
The whole truth will overload you,
Through the old comes the new,
The view changes as you do,
Stay true to the guide inside,
It may divide you for a while,
The pile waits to be sorted,
As a distorted mind becomes aligned,
Finding its way through the dark,
My spark making a mark.
